Redeeming Capitalism (with Ken Barnes)

With the popularity of Bernie Sanders presidential run in 2016 and the increasing embrace of forms of socialism by critics of capitalism, the time is right for a vigorous examination of the virtues and vices of market capitalism. Scott and Sean interview Dr. Ken Barnes, Director of the Mockler Center for Faith and Ethics in the Workplace, about his new book, Redeeming Capitalism. Join us for this stimulating conversation about the intersection of Christian faith and economics, from the perspective of both a trained theologian and a long time business executive.  Dr. Ken Barnes is Director of the Mockler Center for Faith and Ethics at Gordon Conwell Seminary in Boston. He has had a long career as a global business executive and he holds several theological degrees--an M.A.T.S. from Gordon-Conwell, an M.Div. from New Brunswick Theological Seminary, M.Phil. from Kings College, University of London in Church History and Doctrine, and D.Min. from Reformed Theological Seminary in Chaplaincy and Apologetics.  Read a transcript of this episode at: https://www.biola.edu/blogs/think-biblically/2018/redeeming-capitalism  ==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.   Find all episodes of Think Biblically at: https://www.biola.edu/think-biblically.   To submit comments, ask questions, or make suggestions on issues you'd like us to cover or guests you'd like us to have on the podcast, email us at [email protected].
